PHCAS Mod 1

Hello everyone,

I started my own mod for Panzer Corps v122. It will be made for v122 with Afrika Corps, Allied Corps and DLC Grand Campaign installed.

I can wait till it is finished before sharing it with you, but I decided to share it yet.

The goal is to add many new units, graphic screens, rework the existing campaigns and scenarios and bring more ww2 history and atmosphere in the game.

As others are using my graphics, I will use beside my own made graphics also the graphics of others find on the internet and forums, credits are for them who made them.

A lot of atmosphere color pictures and messages are added but also changes in historical names, number of units, numbers of turns etc. Only the first scenarios are done yet, but the rest will follow in updates on this forum.

Remember this mod is far from finished and need a lot of updates in the future. But it is playable and gives a lot of extra demensions on gameplay.

Greetings PHCAS

If I understand you correctly,

I would zip it up and post on either mediafire, dropbox, or sendspace. These are the most common sites used by others on this forum. If for everyone to test and enjoy; In your forum message, post the link to your download and give a synopsis of your current changes. There are many examples in the forum where the first page of your topic message is where you would edit and post your most recent upgrades. Maybe one of the authors can give you a better insight.

You can also deliver through private emails if you want keep the test group smaller or more private until you feel comfortable releasing to others.

Be sure to specify any requirements, such as must have either particular DLC', AC, AK, or all. Don't know if this helps, but maybe others have ideas.

It doesn't work because you put everything under the Panzer Corps folder.

All the folders need to be stand alone under PHCAS mod v122 - v100

I was able to download just fine.

I prefer to use GME rather than write over my Panzer Files. (If you are going to recommend that, you need to warn the people to backup/save the files that you are overwriting). With GME, you do not need to do that.

Anyway, I renamed your Panzer Corps folder to PHCAS_v100 and copied to the Slitherine/Panzer Corps/Mods folder.

I then went into GME and loaded only your mod named PHCAS_V100. I then started PzC and selected new game. I see your changes right away. I started the PzC 1939 fame from the menu and could see the additional units available. I looked at their unit displays and I like them very much. There was a unit type of Structures that was not showing any pictures for the individual units.

I went back to the menu options and attempted to locate my DLC's. They were not listed. I went back and copied my DLC1.txt and GUID.txt from my DLC 1939 and overwrote yours. I then went back into GME and reloaded. When I restarted with your mod and went looking for my DLC's, I found only my 1939. That tells me that we should not overwrite someone's DLC1.txt or GUID.txt. (I think... maybe someone else can explain this)

I started the 1939 and first thing I noticed was that very few, if any units had trucks/carriers available. I had to wait a few turn as I maneuvered my units to a city to upgrade with trucks. Of course I had to get some prestige first. Also, I noticed your messages appearing like getting to dive bombers, but they did not show up. ALso a fighter? that did not show up as well.

I will replay and take better notes and send to you.
